I am trying to print the data from a data type and also get the field
values. How would I reference those values if I am declaring a Show function.
I should probably use a class for this, but so far it is working.
I have something along the lines of this.
data SimplePlayer = SimplePlayer {
shape :: MechShape,
angle :: GLfloat,
posX :: GLfloat,
posY :: GLfloat
}
and then to use "Show", I was declaring this.
instance Show SimplePlayer where
show a = "<Simple> posX [" ++ show a{posX} ++ "]"
Of course, this didn't compile.
How should I change this code to get the field label values of the type.
